re: #377 Hecuba’s daughter

I’ve never been a Bernie fan and am still upset by his damage to Clinton, but I don’t think his action merits expulsion from the Senate. The term Revolution has been so watered down that it’s lost much of its original violent connotations. We have revolutions everywhere: Revolution in car design — a revolution in technology etc. It now means a major (or not so major) change in operation.

Sanders was quite explicit what he meant when he called for Revolution- “a million people outside Mitch McConnell’s office,” with the implication that those people will force McConnell’s hand because might makes right. (Sanders lost the KY primary, of course.)

You’re right not to try to defend him on the rest; there’s really no logical defense. The Democrats must be rid of the guy or be tainted by association.
